Lower Sac Report by Luke Geraty

Eric brought his 19 year old son, Ayden, to fish the Lower Sac with me and we had a REALLY great time. The fishing started out pretty consistent and that lasted until the afternoon. The grabs were steady throughout the day and though the morning belonged to Ayden, the ending belonged to Eric! I guess dads have to teach their sons how to keep at it, right? Ha ha! The bugs didn't really ever get going like I was hoping but the fish were eating caddis right off the bat and we also picked up fish on PMDs, Red Headed Step Childs, and other various small nymphs. NOTHING on a rubber legs, shockingly. Toward the end of the day the wind picked up, but that's why it's nice to start early, right? Water clarity down to Anderson was great and in most of the usual spots, we hooked fish. What a great day for this father / son duo and it was great fishing with these great anglers! Casting is definitely important with fly fishing but what's also important on the Lower Sac is getting a good drift because if you can mend appropriately, you'll get eats! And these two got eats!

Lower Sac Report by Luke Geraty

Spent a half day with David and one of his buddies and the caddis eats were on point. David had the hot stick and the first couple of hours were consistent with most of our fish eating caddis. I think we got one other fish on a PMD and one other on a rubber legs, but the fish were definitely focused on eating caddis. Didn't see many caddis popping off and it was surprising in that there were a consistent amount of PMDs coming off, but that's the Lower Sac for ya. Flows had dropped 2,000 cfs in the morning, but thankfully the fishing didn't seem much affected by that. Drops are always better than when they raise it!

Delta Report by Andrew Harris

Delta Report from Captain Bryce Tedford: I had a very enjoyable trip today with buddies John & Jerry from the Golden Gate Angling & Casting Club. We had good action in the morning and then struggled to find fish after lunch. It's been tough to stay on fish consistently the last couple of weeks. John & Jerry made the most of their opportunities and had a good time out there!
